Is the starvation of civilians being used by Israel as a weapon of war?

Inside Story

Palestinians in Gaza are living in famine-like conditions because of the shortage of humanitarian aid.

The United Nations has warned that hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza are on the brink of starvation.

About two million Palestinians are facing acute levels of hunger after many of them lost their homes and livelihoods.

Desperate people, unable to feed themselves or their children, are living in famine-like conditions, some resorting to eating animal feed and weeds to survive.

Is the strangling of food, medicine and other humanitarian supplies being used as collective punishment by the Israeli government?
